A new documentary is giving fans an insight into the life of late DJ Avicii with never-before-seen footage.
Using home videos and a huge private archive, Avicii – I’m Tim has landed on Netflix today (31 December).
And with interviews from those close to him, a friend of the Swedish music star has shared his heartbreaking regret.
Starting off sharing his remixes at the age of 16, Avicii (real name Tim Bergling) truly broke through in 2011 with his hit ‘Levels’.
This was followed by his first album True which, of course, featured the major smash song, ‘Wake Me Up’. He went on to have a list of popular releases before retiring from touring in 2016, after years of stress and poor mental health.
Bergling then died by suicide in 2018, while on holiday in Oman.
Netflix’s new documentary looks at his ‘winding journey’ through live from his ‘very first breath at the maternity ward in Stockholm in 1989 to the tragic end’.
It adds: “This is a film where Tim himself is the narrator and he shares his inner self in a way we haven’t heard before.”

During the doc, Bergling’s friends and family open up about his death as his close friend Jesse Waits says: “I don’t think anybody really know why or what happened, nobody really knows what was going through his mind, everybody can speculate.
“He seemed good to everybody I talked to that were around him, he was in a good place. It’s hard to accept.”
Waits continued to reveal his regrets over the music talent’s death as he wishes he’d been there and been able to help him during that tragic time.
“I know this is something that is inevitable, but if I was there I could have fixed it,” he said.

“Whatever he was going through, I’d be like, ‘F**king shut the f**k up, f**king put your shoes on, and let’s go out f**king outside for a walk.
“I’m sure everybody feels that they could have changed something, especially his family.”
The documentary is narrated by Bergling himself with director Henrik Burman explaining to Billboard: “When I determined that he’d be the one who’d narrate this story, I thought that maybe it was how I could be close to him. Maybe that’s how I can meet him.”
With the blessing of the star’s parents, Burman had full access to the Avicii archives, finding hours of interviews with the record producer from throughout his career.
“There were moments in these interviews where he’d say, ‘This really describes me as a person, so if there’s ever a documentary made about me, you should use this to tell the story,’” Burman added.
You can now stream Avicii – I’m Tim on Netflix.
